I hope you’ve been able to keep up-to-date on the hype of the Sanders “Revolution” (which, curiously, has many of the hallmarks of a typical CIA-MOSSAD-manipulated “color” – “revolution”. And then, on the other hand, I hope you’ve also been able to follow the trajectory of Trumps thumps across the political landscape.

When weaned off the drugs (hopefully soon), I’d be most interested to know your opinion on the covert forces behind Sanders “Revolution”? And whether or not you think Trump would succeed in accomplishing anything beneficial for America or for the world as a whole (or as a hole) if The Donald added the White House to his collection? (Do either have much of a chance? .. (I think Sanders doesn’t, but trump might.)

This condition is extremely common in Americans and “modern” Anglo- countries. And it is EASILY and ALWAYS cured by a proper low-fat, whole-food, plant-based diet (w/ 1000 mcg B12/day & ground flax seed for Omega 3.).

BTW: Cholesterol levels are set too high in U.S. .. for good health, T.C. should be under 150 … the lower, the better (REF: McDougall, Esselstyn, Greger, Ornish, etc.).

I hope you begin eating an OPTIMAL very low-fat vegan diet and regain excellent health soon.

True story: when I was hit by a bolt on Kitt Peak at 11 years of age, I could NOT turn on or off lights in Tucson without getting a nasty shock. I started wearing gloves to prevent this from happening!

I am still quite ill but no known diagnosis. It was probably triggered by poison ivy where I was chopping up weeds but this is an unusual reaction and lasting way, way too long.

Diet: I can hardly eat anything! I cannot eat vegetables at all. I mostly eat fruits and jello (which has proteins!). My dream world has gone whacky lately.

Last night, in order to sleep, I did mathematical calculations in my head which turned into weird hallucinations based on 100+digits. I would classify this under the heading of ‘nightmares’. Heh.

I hope to feel better by afternoon so I can talk about China. I had a LOT to do with China going ‘capitalist’ thanks to my father’s friendship with top Chinese rulers way way back when Kissinger went to China for Nixon.

Some of the people running China today (governor of Shanghai, for example) actually LIVED with ME! When going to school.

The perhaps most pivotal importance of China is that it was the world’s latest financial hope. The yuan devaluation shatters that hope once and for all. The global economy looks a lot more bleak for it, even if many people already didn’t believe official growth numbers anymore.

Because we’ve reached the end of the line, the game changes. Of course there will be additional attempts at stimulus, but China’s central bank has de facto conceded that its measures have failed. The yuan devaluations, three days in a row now, mean the central People’s Bank of China has, openly though reluctantly, acknowledged its QE has failed, and quite dramatically at that. They just hope you won’t notice, and try to bring it on with a positive spin.

Central banks are not “beginning” to lose control, they lost control a long time ago. The age of central bank omnipotence has “left and gone away” like Joltin’ Joe. Omnipotence has been replaced by impotence.
…
For us this was clear years ago. It was never about the timing, it was always about the inevitability. Back in the day there were still lots of voices clamoring for – near-term or imminent – hyperinflation. Not so much now. We always left open the hyperinflation option, but far into the future, only after deflation was done wreaking its havoc. A havoc that will be so devastating you’ll feel silly for ever even thinking about hyperinflation.
…
As for today’s reality, the Chinese leadership has been eclipsed by its own ignorance about economic systems, the limits of their control over them, and the overall hubris they live in on a daily basis. These people were educated in the 1960s and 70s China of Mao and Deng Xiaoping. In the same air of omnipotence that today betrays all central bankers. Why try to understand the world if you’re the one who shapes it?!

The EU is already falling to pieces so they…screwed around with Putin concerning Ukraine. DUMB.

My parents knew, personally, Deng Xiaoping and…hehe…MADAME MAO. She was a total freaky monster. Maybe I should write about the fights she had with my mother with Mao slapping her down. That is, Madame Mao slapped down.

China’s ruling elites are NOT UNIFORM.

I lived with the governor of Shanghai for a year. But he is now retired and look at how careless and stupid the replacements are.
